Thai PM: No link between Wanndy's death and south Thailand bombing

 

BANGKOK: Thai authorities have not found any evidence linking the recent bombing in southern Thailand to the death of Muhammad Wanndy Mohamed Jedi, a top Malaysian member in the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group, in Syria recently.

 

Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha nevertheless ordered Thai security agencies to continue investigating the alleged link.

 

"Thailand has not found any intelligence information indicating that the bombing in southern Thailand was related to the recent terror attacks in Jakarta and Mindanao," he said in a statement issued after the weekly cabinet meeting, here, Tuesday.

 

Prayut said the government would inform the public if it had sufficient evidence to link the blast in Pattani recently with other terror attacks in the region.
